Boston Scientific Reviews

Pros

Pay is acceptable and they do offer good benefits. Just make sure you are wiling to pay the price.

Cons

work/ life balance favoritism high turnover

Pros

Get to work with interesting technology, fulfilling doctor and patient interactions, making a tangible impact on peoples' lives.

Cons

If you work in New York City, beware of a sexist and racist team environment driven by an alpha-male sales culture. Sexual harassment and assault by team members and/or customers has been swept under the rug. Frequent racist, sexist, xenophobic, and homophobic remarks are made on team communication platforms. The team is nearly entirely white in the most diverse city in America. There is very FREQUENT turnover of the most talented people every 2-3 years due to the terrible environment and lack of a promotion. The pay is significantly less than other competitors. You will routinely work 12-15 hour days multiple times per week with no pay increase compared to an FCR who works 8 hour days.

Pros

Competitive wages, great inclusion and diversity. Opportunities for career growth. Great benefits.

Cons

Warehousing space is very tight in both locations of Maple Grove and Arden Hills, MN. Makes it difficult to maneuver to perform job tasks. Not very "Team" oriented in Maple Grove, MN. It is such a massively huge company, sometimes I feel like a very replaceable number. I would rate it a 5 star company but they made a business decision to move Urology production from Minnetonka, MN to Arden Hills, MN that is forcing me to double my commute. :( Making me want to look for employment elsewhere, after 27 years, closer to home.

Pros

I have truly enjoyed my career at Boston Scientific! I have had leadership and a professional landscape that allowed me to grow a deep skill set and vast opportunity in Cardiac Rhythm Management. The culture, ethics in business and dedication to putting their patients first make me proud to say I work for BSC. Boston Scientific is committed to an inclusive work place- they walk the walk. It has been a great experience!

Cons

Cardiac Rhythm Management can sometimes be described as a vocation- but there are times where work/life balance can be a challenge to find.

Pros

Work Life Integration, Fulfilling Work, Inspiring Leaders, Incredibly Smart and Nice Colleagues

Cons

Highly Matrixed Organization (for your consideration)

Pros

Patient focused culture. Employee development and diversity, and inclusion. They do care for their employees and offer flexible schedules. Work life balance is big.

Cons

Will take some time to move up. You have to speak up and make your goals very clear and keep pushing. Some department managers still chose favorites. Compensation is not bad but not the best compared to similar companies and roles.

Pros

Climate controlled, easy work, as much overtime as you could generally want.

Cons

Lots of forced overtime, generally always short handed. Large issue of favoritism, ie the department supervisor picks friend's for positions they aren't suited for better than someone else. Those same friends are able to get away with slacking off and doing just about whatever but if your not in their little group then it's not advisable to try it yourself at any point. Have seen instances where someone is going for the same position as 1 of the supervisors friend are and the supervisor will, in turn, treat that person like crap to discourage them from taking it.
